The Condor of South America.

eff the governments of Chill and of
other South American countries had paid
bounty of S. head for dead condors
thirty years ago. as | understand they do
now said the representative of New
York leather house, Il could have made
fortune in the course of a few months
and had heap of fun doing it. Con-
doris were plenty, all along the Chiiian
coast, at any rate as far back as 1851,
and during the few months that was in
that country l found out good deal
about them, and could have made 500
a day.
1.-The appearance of hawk circling
about in the air over poultry yard will
not fill a brood of chickens with more
terror and excitement than will the
shadow of condor on the wing carry to
herd of cattle feeding on Chilian plain,
as the great vulture sweeps down from
his eyrie in the painless Andes to seize
his prey. The condor, unlike other men,
bers of the vulture family, doesn't wait
for something or somebody to die in order
that he may have his dinner, but if he
don't find a ready made carcass conven-
lent on the plain when he is hungry he
proceeds at once to provide the carcass
himself. The herds of cattle that pasture
on the undulating plains lying between
the impenetrable wall of the Andes and
the Pacfic's white crested line of surf
offer the condor unrivaled facilities for
carcass making. and, as he is in state
of chronic hunger, this king of the
feathered race levies constant tribute on
the grazing herds. Thirty years ago it
was no uncommon sight to see thousand
of these winged freebooters lowering over
the plains, each one ravenous and deter
mined as dinner robber from the scamp
ering, terror stricken, believing herds
below The condor was then. as he is
now in less degree, the greatest enemy
the stock raiser in that portion of South
| America had to contend with, and it was
his persistent and destructive raids on
grazing cattle that made him an outlaw
with a price on his head, to be relent-
lessly hunted even among the many crags
and cloud capped craters where he makes
his home. Ed. Mott in New York Mail
and Express.

least there were not so many arms twist
ing about. Lifting my head until |
could see along the port rail, discovered
the beaks of only two octopuses. Others
were in the water alongside, however,
and had their feelers over the rail, some
clinging fast to shroud or mast, while
others were carefully moving about. A
breeze had come up, and | was angry
and impatient at the delay, but | re-
strained myself to wait for another half
hour. BY that time the creatures had
deserted us entirely. From the commo-
ton in the water on the rocky reef, Ihad
no doubt that it was the den or nesting
place of the creatures, and that they had
returned after venting their anger on us
as far as possible. Such a rifle rattle
never saw before or after on vessels
deck. We could not put to sea in such
shape, but / had to threaten the men
with a pistol before | could get one of
them to enter the yawl and pick up the
stuff floating about. We worked swiftly
and as silently as possible to make good
the damage, keeping man on the look
out all the time, and we were thankful
body of men when the anchor was finally
up and we were clear of the bay.
AS to the strength of an octopus, / will
tell you what four or five of us once saw
at one of the spice islands. There was a
yawl floating astern of a small trading
schooner anchored off the beach. was
on the schooner talking with the captain,
and his crew of five men were all on
deck, when an octopus rose on the port
side of the yawl and flung three of his
tentacles into it. We saw everything
from the first move. The arms. sliding
about, found nothing to lay hold of, and
then, as if the octopus was indignant at
his i'll luck, he capsized the yawl in a
twinkling. The water was not over
twelve fdet there, and getting a hold on
the rocks, he pulled the yawl astern until
he broke the painter, which was a new
inch rope. The strength displayed in
that movement was equal to that of a
draught horse, but he was not using
more than a third of his power.-New
York Sun.

The hour of sunset. aud the night grows chill,

And throw their purple blackness ON the hill.

In placid calm reflects unerringly
Each shrub and leafy spray
That on its margin grows so wantonly.

And so perchance lifes labor soon will be
How will the record run
When mirrored in the everlasting seaY
viii clouds obscure the ray
That shines afar; What mystery! How prone
Are we to court delay
How can the soul go forth in doubt, alone?
Behold a tiny rift
Divides the dark o'erhangng cloud. At last
A glory seems to lift
The burden from the nght-the chill is overpast
The hills in rosy light
With pinnacles of cloud afame are seen,
Heavens towers grow bright
Within the bosom Of the cold. gray stream.

In vivid gold, through pearl and crimson bars,
The day soon to die
Unveils the mystery beyond the stars.

Making Stone Type.

An inventor has completed expert
ments which, he asserts, show the prac-
ticability of making stone type. They
are, of course, of large size, to substitute
wood letters. The material is an artifi-
cial stone pressed into molds and then
hardened, afterwards being polished on
the surface. There will be no warping
and no expansion or contraction, and
each font will be exactly the same as that
preceding The inventor predicts great
future for the material. Boston Budget

The use of kangaroo skins for leather
has come rapidly into fashion within a
year or two, and those animals, which
were once regarded as a nuisance in
Australia, are now priced and sought for.
Porpoise leather is also a commodity
largely in demand, and man or woman
wearing a costly pair of shoes cannot
well be sure, nowadays, whether the
material came from the Australian bush,
the South seas or the back of Texas
